As long as it's the same base, ( ie both latex ) then you can.

Only if you mix them thoroughly. Only mix flat with flat, gloss with gloss, etc. Since the sheen components are different in each brand, some 'flashing' may occur. Flashing is an inconsistency in the sheen across the painted surface.

Can I mix a latex flat apint with an acrylic semi gloss paint?

Of the two paints you are going to try mixing, a water based paint (latex), with a spirit based (possibly methalated) . Not a good idea as they will separate. DO NOT MIX! On the containers for these paints you will be told how to wash your brushes ie.. Water for Latex. Turpintine, or Varsol for the Oil based paints and stains. Again, Oil and Water do NOT MIX!!!


Can you mix enamel and latex paint together?

A primers is basically used to seal a surface and give the top coat "tooth". A primer should be chosen for the surface it is going on, oil based primers adhere better to surfaces like bare wood, slick finishes, and old oil based paint. Once the primer has dried any kind or paint may be applied as a top coat.


Can you apply Ace hardware poly-finish Latex Acrylic over Polyurethane?

I did! I had white latex paint and added minwax chestnut brown stain to it. When I tried to mix the two to Schubert a brown color I ended up with a swirl (oil and water do not mix). I applied the mixture with a rag to an old table and the paint ended up turning a purplish color with cream and brown streaks. Almost like a milk paint look. I LOVE my "new" table!! I wish I could find more info on this technique!!


Can you use rubber base over epoxy base paint?

When you say rubber base paint I assume you mean latex paint. Yes, latex paint will adhere to an existing epoxy finish. However, the epoxy must already have cured. Meaning, it was already applied sometime in the past. A pretty good rule of thumb to go by when you're unsure if two finishes are compatible is to apply a coat of primer. Also, when latex paint is applied to a primed surface it will last that much longer, appear more uniform and will usually require only one coat of paint for proper coverage.


Can you mix latex stain and latex paint for deck painting?

No! Latex is waterbased, and that doesn't mix with oil based materials. You can't even paint one over the other... Check out your materials before you start - if you take the right materials and preparations, your work will last much, much longer. Do you stain over new wood, or over something already stained? New wood is best treated with waterstain first (if you want extra coloring). And in restaining, try to find the same material as it was done with before. If you can't figure out what it is, use a shellac sealer.

How do you paint flat not latex over satin latex paint?

Yes, you can. The whole problem with flat paint over satin is the gloss sheen bleeding through the flat finish. I typically do one of two things for a customer when they have this situation: Either I just plan on two coats of the new paint, or I paint the walls with cheap flat white paint and then paint the top coat with the new paint. I prefer the latter, as I always have buckets of cheap flat white leftover, which saves some cash, as the top coat is usually about $30 per gallon.
